He’s been dodging interviews for years now. He can’t do any radio shows cuz they’ll ask about him knocking Emily’s teeth out and threatening her and her father on camera. I think he’s cool for that.
I wonder why fab never dropped a full clothing company. Fab had fashion influence on dudes from the east coast to the west coast from 02 to 07. Similar to Travis Scott and Kanye in these times.
I've never heard anyone say Fab influenced them. Especially on the west coast. He's mostly known in the fashion world for rocking fake Jordans and jerseys.
@MatthewJwelty I still have a brand new Rich Yung tee from back in the day I never wore. I'm waiting for White/ Metallic Green AJ 1's to drop to rock it.
NAW NOT UNDERRATED BY EVERYBODY THAT OWNED THAT REAL TALK ALBUM JUST A SHAME HES KNOWN MORE FOR HIS CLOTHES THAN HIS RAPS BET NEITHER ONE OF YALL CAN RECITE A BAR WITHOUT GOOGLING IT. FYI IM MORE DRIPPY THAN FAB
Fab was the go-to for style when I was growing up early 2000’s. Watched the entire interview. Now I want to throw some Fab on as I do my housework on this Father’s Day. Happy Father’s Day to all the fathers. God Bless Eid Mubarak
Glad you guys addressed the real issues with the Action Bronson release. That post captured the reality of the situation and hopefully calling this kind of behavior out can lead to better releases in the future. Maybe retail outlets don't realize that people actually schedule their day around drops and if they drop 15 minutes early it feels like these people don't get it.
You can see the shift in sneaker culture coming back around to being sort of niche i love it , back to the best of lists 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 I need that best posite shoe episode forsure‼️
Welty speaking on colab shoes releasing on the person's website being terrible speaks more considering how awful the release was for the Nina Chanel 3s
Yep, it was awful. Raffle was open for like 4 hours and basically being spammed with bot entries the entire time to where it took me 30 minutes of attempting to enter. Then for Nina to post on Instagram that there was an “unforeseen malicious attack” is just so frustrating to see
In 2004, I remember going to Sheikhs at 5am and they had a sign that said you need to buy other Jordan merchandise/clothes, if you want to Buy the Shoes. Crazy times.
Couldn’t wait for this one ! Kick game properrrrr! A legend in this game for real Loso has always been a fashion icon I’ve always looked up to! Such a dope individual Amazing conversations guys!
36:13 I aint gon lie, I don't know how fab actually felt about the sauconys or their match with the shirt, but him lifting his glasses to get a better look, welty should already consider that high praise.
What a great episode and guest! Fab is a legend especially as a kid from New York. I copied his fits heavy in middle school. I will say I remember ppl in New York rocking with the 18s and 19s in some colors and the red suede 21s
Two things, 1) Respect for rocking a GRs. Too much weight is on collabs. Get a fit off with a GR. 2) any time JLP and Welty bring up old sneaker store stories, it’s too real. The manager coming in on his off day…😂 Someone write a show like The Bear but it’s at a sneaker store in the early 2000s
On the Bronson story - I was never able to get a sneaker through his site but I did by other apparel on each drop - I was given friends and family access. Thought it was the right way to do it. Nike has done similar things in the past
There were multiple issues with the Bronson Rosewater drop. The purpose of doing drops on a different domain is so that bots do not have time to set up. When he leaked the domain early, he gave botters time to set up. When he made the password easy to guess, it was basically game over. Most stores who use a different domain don't release that info until the scheduled drop time. They could have a link on their main site that redirects to the alternate domain.
Talking about crazy antics….. you guys should do a breakdown of the craziest antics for releases in the past 15-20 years. I know we touched on the pigeon dunk release quite a lot but would be cool to get a look back of memory lane of even some of the most horrific drops and maybe some of the best.
When that video dropped everyone wanted those 7’s I remember when they finally released that Saturday the line at modells on Pennsylvania ave was around the corner
I saw some vision of the ice cool Jo Lah Poomah with Iron Mike Tyson on complex .. you could see the fear in Jo Lah poomah eyes .. as if IRON was going to “ Michael Spynx “ him 😅
Random question but do y’all feel rereleasing grails would destroy the market ? for example like a atmos air max 1 being so old of a pair still priced for high on the market on this day and time just not have the same value as then ?
That gazelle yellow and black is crazy.. the only problem wit the gazelle is that they’re flat and low key, but they’re ok only thing needed is that lil extra flava that’s why the gazelle collabs go crazy ..kith Clark’s etc
Coke K's have always had some sort of pop-culture-referencing "stamp" or trademark as a form of branding and denoting quality. This is similar to stamps on bundles in the east coast. Usually stuff like Dior, LV, Batman, Superman, Nike, Balenciaga, etc. The cartels either stamp the top or put a printed picture on top under the cellophane. Hypothetically....
I also mainly wear black colorway shoes so I get what JLP is sayin. I just think they look better after being worn compared to white based colorways. Its also something ab suede shoes that im hooked on
I have not watched this show in over a year or more wow have a 3 year old now and it's crazy I used watch religiously now we collect Hot Wheels life comes at you fast yo Love each other ❤️💯
How many sneakers is too many?
“There is never too many. There’s just not enough days to wear them all”
When you buy something forgetting you already had it, then it's time to cut back a lil.
when you have more than you can consistently wear
Was born in 85’ the golden year and will wear Jordans and nikes for the rest of my time and afterlife lol

Fab is so chill and such an inspiration to the sneaker community
He’s been dodging interviews for years now. He can’t do any radio shows cuz they’ll ask about him knocking Emily’s teeth out and threatening her and her father on camera. I think he’s cool for that.
I wonder why fab never dropped a full clothing company. Fab had fashion influence on dudes from the east coast to the west coast from 02 to 07. Similar to Travis Scott and Kanye in these times.
He did. It was called Rich Yung Society.
@@MatthewJweltyword I remember the shirts would almost always have wings
It’s harder to get a long lasting clothing brand than to just always know how to look fly. Most rappers brands just last a few years then flame out.
I've never heard anyone say Fab influenced them. Especially on the west coast. He's mostly known in the fashion world for rocking fake Jordans and jerseys.

Absolute LEGEND! Probably the most underrated Lyricist of all time. Shout out to Loso!
Probably 💯

Fab " trade it all " fit was epic at the time .. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fake 7s

@@eib3137 crazy
thank you guys so much! for bring us a dope amazing good quality show for free! thank you so much!
Fab definitely help pave the way when it came to sports jerseys and sneakers. Iconic outfits that are instantly recognizable. Great episode.

Brendan cutting welty off saying "theres so way this will be interesting to me" killed me 😂
bro got his get back from last episode 🤣
Can’t stand that lady with the mustache
Fab dropping bars without trying... he might have to cut him a check..
A backwards check!😂😂
As an add to the AM90 Gore-Tex (25:06), best advice to half-a-size up. A good sneaker to wear on a rainy day for sure.
Yall are so ill for the Stack Bundles shootout. I really love yall for that. He was really 1 of 1. 🐐💯❤️
Shootout?
@@DavidZile-b3l he meant shout out obviously
Squad up.
@@brendandunnecomplex what?
@@DavidZile-b3lYou not a fan of Stack Bundles clearly 😂
Fab is well spoken. He should do a podcast. Still waiting for an album!
Fabo had all of us wearing Throwbacks down to our Knees, MFGirbaud Jeans and flat billed hats lol 😅
So u credit Fab instead of Hov?🤔
@@coryboynton6409 Boff of em
@@coryboynton6409definitely not crediting jay z on nothin. how many of biggies lyrics gon come out hisfatlips
Always kool to hear the history of FAB! 🔥🔥
Mom I’m in the pod! Thanks for circling back to this, feels good when feedback is heard and the space becomes better for the average consumer :)
You can see the shift in sneaker culture coming back around to being sort of niche i love it , back to the best of lists 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

The green ones?
Awesome guest. Love Fab style. He always been a big influence.
Fab has definitely cleaned up his communication skills. Great interview
In 2004, I remember going to Sheikhs at 5am and they had a sign that said you need to buy other Jordan merchandise/clothes, if you want to Buy the Shoes. Crazy times.
They tried some of that bs in Toronto too
I like that Fab wore the Ochre 1's even though he has mad heat he's down to earth enough to rock what he likes the colors he throws on is always fresh
Fab such a chill guy he was melting on that couch. Great episode
Joe “I’m afraid of fish” LaPuma
And white shoes
We need to get to the bottom of this.
That's why he doesn't go with 5s 😅 🦈
WE NEED 2 SPEAK ON ALL THE OLYMPICS SHOES THAT CAME OUT &,FUTURE DROPS
Talk about the Throwing Fits Adidas Gazelle they are super fire. But the HATERS won’t mention it! Welty might he’s not a hater
@@BookerT69size? Gazelles won 2024
Great episode! The story about Fab turning back with Salehe on the hike cracked me up
Salehe has 24 hours to respond
They should give him a check…
“A backwards check.” FaB
😂 That’s a bar.
🐐 episode! Should have asked him when the next Soul Tape is dropping
Couldn’t wait for this one ! Kick game properrrrr!
A legend in this game for real
Loso has always been a fashion icon I’ve always looked up to! Such a dope individual
Amazing conversations guys!
Matt is so right about the value of those lists to people who are starting with sneaker culture!
He did! It was called Rich Yung. Look it up. I used to rock w him back in 06-07 and that’s when he started it
I hope Nike would give FABO a collab
Almost spit out my cereal when Joe said this to Welty, “Picture books were your thing back then” 😂😂
Fab the throwback king
fabolous needs a jordan collab asap
Dope episode 🙌🏾
Thanks to you guys I was able to get the Medusa Azul’s 🙏🏽! Thank you Complex for always providing the sneaker info ! You guys the goats fr 🙏🏽!
Suggestion for one of the “Top 10” Lists:
“Top 10 most comfortable Sneakers of all Time”
Fab is a show friend! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Nike SB stamped bricks lol , the "SB" stands SNOWboarding in this case 😂
36:13 I aint gon lie, I don't know how fab actually felt about the sauconys or their match with the shirt, but him lifting his glasses to get a better look, welty should already consider that high praise.
Ayyyy one the goats of kicks and fashion . Now get Wale
They need to talk with them longer than 20min too
Wale😂😂😂
My favorite podcast
What a great episode and guest! Fab is a legend especially as a kid from New York. I copied his fits heavy in middle school. I will say I remember ppl in New York rocking with the 18s and 19s in some colors and the red suede 21s
Fun Fact : Fab performed in the red 17’s in 2002 at the Jordan Brand Classic in D.C
Years ago, I bought a pair of peanut butter and jelly Saucony's that Fab rocked. Fab always had heat
This my first time watching a video of jlp outside of sneaker shopping , I didn’t expect jlp to be that funny or chill😂😂
Dope seeing FAB popping the shades to check out the Saucony’s 😎
You see the genuine look in G eyes too. Them same eyes bring pain too 🗽🐐🗽
That RM watch Fab got on. 🔥🔥🔥
Fab would make a great guest host
The Jordan 17 is a holy grail of grails for ball players. It’s a shoe I’ve never even seen in person. I love’em.
Fabulous, the one from the minatti mix, known to have more kicks than a karate flick! Let em know Fab
32:07 Fab smooth with the double etendre
Friday night habit. Watching from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Love your content fam! Keep it up! Can't wait to see what else you make in 2024! 👟🔥🎥
Brendan is the first person to mention the military 4 leather making noise, I’m having the same problem.
Are they good quality or no?
@@BookerT69 the quality is good, they just make a farting noise if you lace them normally
Not sure Fabulous was vey influential in Australia. I personally like the show for the upcoming sneakers and debate. Cheers
Drop the album fabolous we wating 😂
15-20 are some of the greatest Jordan’s ever. Performance easily the best by far and looks are so good.
4:56 YO I DIDNT EVEN KNOW THEY MENTIONED IT!!!!!!!!! THROWING FITS INDOOR GAZELLE IS SO INSANE FIRE!!!!!!!!🔥 im gonna BUST!!!!
Brendan hating on Joe and Welty enjoying wrestling is legitimately toxic friend behavior.
Stay calm, it’s just banter amongst friends 👍
Yeah Brenda acts like a girl so much. It grew up and didn’t even play sports. The dude just jogs
Let's go, Brendan!
Man you don't know how much I have to listen to wrestling talk in the office every day.
Facts I don’t trust people that hate wrestling
43:43 immediately hit the “so , pause” button
As he should. “Pause” hit different depending on who’s saying it and how it’s said
That French Blue 7 look was so fire!!!
The king of color matching
Only right to have Loso on. 🔥
Its apart of the culture 💯
Welty's "HEY" count off the scale once again.
Fab should definitely have a collaboration with Da Brand
What brand sunglasses is fab wearing, anyone know?
It’s hard not to match when you a 80s baby everything has to coordinate
Facts not fiction 😩
we get it, you going easy on action bronson
Doing a tier list of Nike SB Dunk Mids I believe would create a very interesting discussion
HOLLA BACK YOUNG’N
Whoop whoop
watching this on my birthday on the beach elite vibes
Two things,
1) Respect for rocking a GRs. Too much weight is on collabs. Get a fit off with a GR.

Kodak best example of matchy match excellence in today’s day & age.
Air max 90s are the only model shoe that actually feels like your walking on Max Air literally!
When that video dropped everyone wanted those 7’s I remember when they finally released that Saturday the line at modells on Pennsylvania ave was around the corner
The air max 2s that came out a few years ago were a different version than the air max 2 94?
Great show guys 🔥🔥🔥
Fab and Welty is so good
I saw some vision of the ice cool Jo Lah Poomah with Iron Mike Tyson on complex .. you could see the fear in Jo Lah poomah eyes .. as if IRON was going to “ Michael Spynx “ him 😅
30:50 It’s not about history, it’s about FUTURE no pun intended
33:42 my blue 4s make that sound from the tongue rubbing against the leather
Fab a young dro are 2 of the freshest
Watching from Ghana 🇬🇭
